Objective To assess the clinical efficacy of electroacupuncture plus acupuncture point injection in treating carpal tunnel syndrome. Method Sixty-three patients with carpal tunnel syndrome were allocated, using a random number table, to a treatment group (32 cases) and a control group (31 cases). The treatment group received electroacupuncture plus acupuncture point injection and the control group, conventional acupuncture. One course of treatment was given. After treatment, the clinical therapeutic effects and the recurrence rates based on the symptoms and signs were compared between the two groups. Result The total efficacy rates in the treatment and control groups were 93.8% and 77.4%, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in clinical therapeutic effect between the two groups (P＜0.05). There was a statistically significant posttreatment difference in the recurrence rate between the two groups of patients (P＜0.05). Conclusion Electroacupuncture plus acupuncture point injection is easy to perform and has a good effect in treating carpal tunnel syndrome.

Objective To investigate the effects of simultaneous hepatic artery and portal revaseularization on the expression of TNF-α during bile duet ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats liver transplantation.Methods Male Spragne-Dawley rats were used to establish an autologous orthotopic liver transphmtation model.Model rats were random divided two groups,simultaneous revascularization group(sroup P)and portal vein revascularization group(group N).The animals were separately killed at the 2nd hour,6th hour and 24th hour after reperfusion.Plasma samples were collected for ALT,AST,GGT,AKP,TBiL and DBiL test.Bile duct tissues were collected to detect the histolosical changes,MPO activit,and the expression of TNF-α mRNA.Results The serum levels of GGT in group P was significantly lower than that in group N at the 6th hour and 24th hour after reperfusion(P＜0.05).And the serum levels of AKP,TBiL and DBiL and the morphological scores of bile duct in group P were significantly lower than that in group N at the 24th hour after reperfusion(P＜0.05).The activity of MPO in group N was significantly higher than that in group P at the 6th hour after reperfusion(P＜0.05).Compared with group N,the expression of TNF-αmBNA was reduced significantly in group P at the 2nd hour and 6th hour after reperfusion(P＜0.05).Conclusion Simultaneaus hepatic artery and portal revascularization can alleviate I/R induced bile duct injury of rat liver grafts,and the protective mechanism may be asseciated with inhibition the expression of TNF-α and decrease of neutrophil infiltration.

Legal clinic education originating in the United States, aims at educating students on legal practical skills, and plays an positive role in cultivating students' ability of integrating theory with practice and training their various practical vocational skills. The present Chinese training mode of health law specialty does not perform very well in training students' practical ability, while legal clinic education can better make up for some deficiencies. Therefore, this paper learns from the experience of American universities in their legal clinic education, such as the particular division of specialties, the development of outside-school clinics, taking pre-training seriously, and the unique evaluation mechanism. Correspondingly, we explore to construct a set of reasonable legal clinic education system in health law specialty, including the orientation of legal clinics, the double training system inside and outside school, the construction of teaching staff and the establishment of evaluation mechanism.

Objective To investigate the effect of IH764-3 on the leukocyte-mediated hypoxia-reoxygention injury of human brain microvascular endothelial cell (HBMVEC). Methods MTT assay was used to detect the survival of HBMVEC; gelatin zymography was used to check the activity of MMPs. The level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in leukocyte was determined via commercially available kit,and the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to quantify the contents of TNF-?,IL-1?,IL-2 and INF-? in leukocyte culture medium.Results Survival of HBMVEC was impaired by hypoxia-reoxygenation,which was aggravated by supernatant of activated leukocytes but was attenuated by IH764-3. Leukocytes produced high level of MMP-9,ROS and cytokines (TNF-?,IL-1?,IL-2,IFN-?) after hypoxia-reoxygenation,the process was inhibited by IH 764-3. Furthermore,IH764-3 could effectively reverse hypoxia-reoxygenation injury of HBMVEC with supernatant of activated leukocytes. Conclusion IH764-3 can protect HBMVEC from leukocyte-involved hypoxia-reoxygenation injury by attenuating the activation of leukocytes and inhibiting the pathogenic effects of leukocytes products.

Objective To understand the need on AIDS related knowledge and its awareness level on the part of migrants,a special group of people,in north Anhui where there is a high incidence of AIDS,so as to provide basis for making AIDS intervention measures aimed at the group.Methods In the two towns of Linquan County in Anhui,four villages comparatively far away from each other were extracted at random in the unit of village,totally 552 migrants,were surveyed with the self-designed questionnaires.Results Among the 552 research subjects,457 male migrants and 95 female migrants,the female were lower(P

Objective To investigate the effect of tourniquet compression on axonal transport in sciatic nerve of rats.Methods Twenty-four 12-week old male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 4groups according to the duration of tourniquet compression(n=6 each):1,2,4 and 12 h.The tourniquet was applied to the middle 1/3 of thigh.In each animal whether the left or right thigh was compressed was determined by a flip of coin.The tourniquet was released for 10 min after every hour of compression.A 3-cm segment of sciatic nerve was removed at the end of tourniquet compression(1.5 cm proximal and 1.5 cm distal to the site of compression).Immuno-histochemistry was used to measure the expression of insulin-like growth factor-1(IGF-1)in the sciatic nerve.The ratio of average optic density of the compressed sciatic nerve to that of control was used to estimate the degree of IGF-1 accumulation.The regression equation of the interaction between the duration of compression and accumulation of IGF-1 was analyzed.Results There was significant accumulation of IGF-1 in the sciatic nerve proximal to the compressed site.The accumulation increased with the duration of compression.There was no significant accumulation of IGF-1 in the sciatic nerve distal to the compressed site.The regression equation of the interaction between the duration of compression(X)and accumulation of IGF-1(Y)was Y=0.422X+0.887.Conclusion Tourniquet compression of sciatic nerve can inhibit axonal transport.The accumulation increases with the duration of compression.

Objective To explore the feasibility of virtual touch tissue quantification(VTQ) technique in noninvasive assessment of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic stent shunt (TIPSS).Methods Twenty-four patients were enrolled in this study.Shear wave velocity(SWV) of the liver and spleen were obtained by VTQ technique on one day before TIPSS insertion and one week after TIPSS placement,and the portal vein pressure was measured while placing the TIPSS.The correlation between SWV of the liver and spleen and portal venous pressure were analysed.In addition,fourteen patients were followed up for one month after TIPSS placement.Results There was significant difference in portal vein pressure pre [(27.82 ± 4.07) mm Hg] and post [(16.26-± 3.10) mm Hg] TIPSS insertion.The SWV of the liver in patients pre and post TIPSS measured (2.43 ± 0.37)m/s and (2.40 ± 0.34)m/s,respectively.The SWV of the spleen in patients pre and post TIPSS were (3.49 ± 0.40)m/s and (3.08 ± 0.39)m/s,respectively,there was significant difference (P =0.000).However,SWV of the liver pre and post TIPSS placement was no significant difference(P =0.130).And as well as the patients which were followed up for one month after TIPSS placement.A significant,direct,linear correlation(r =0.602,P =0.000) was found between SWV of the spleen and portal vein pressure,but liver SWV was not correlated with the portal venous pressure.Conclusions SWV of the spleen measured by VTQ technique has a significant correlation with portal vein pressure.Hence,the spleen SWV based on VTQ technique can be used as a non-invasive method for quantitatively in monitoring the portal vein pressure as the function of the TIPSS.However,evidence to support a similar role for liver stiffness is lacking.
